The Northrop F-5 tactical fighter was designed as an extremely maneuverable, supersonic fighter with a high rate of reliability at a low operating cost. The F-5 first flew on July 30, 1959 with the first customer delivery in 1964. The last of more than 2,600 F-5's was produced in 1989 and about two-thirds of these are still in service with 26 countries more than 4 decades later. The F-5 was manufactured by Northrop Grumman and under license in Canada, Taiwan, South Korea, Spain and Switzerland.
Swiss Staffel 6 "Ducks" was created in 1925. Staffel 6's first unit badge was a six-pointed
star with a witch riding a broom but in 1940 the badge became a marching duck carrying a Halberd (two-handed pole weapon or staff). With the arrival of the Northrop F-5E in 1983 training moved to Payerne AB and became the home of Staffel 6 with pilots from the French speaking area of Switzerland. Along with Staffels 8, 11, 17, 18 and 19 F-5E J-3033 became 6 Squadron's aircraft to receive a permanent squadron paint scheme.
